Evaluation of a detoxification regimen for fat stored xenobiotics

Abstract

A detoxification regimen has been found to be safe for use by individuals exposed to recreational (abused) and medical drugs, patent medicines, occupational and environmental chemicals Patients with high blood pressure had a mean reduction of 30.8 mm systolic, 23.3 mm diastolic. Cholesterol level mean reduction was 19.5 mg/100ml, while triglycerides did not change. Medical complications associated with the program were rare, occuring in less than three percent of the subjects. The program resulted in improvements in psychological test scores. The mean increase in Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale IQ was 6.7 points. High Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory profiles decreased on the third scale (10.7), the fourth scale (8.0), the fifth scale (4.5) and the sixth scale (8.0). The decrease in the fourth scale suggests hope for sociopaths, a group with fourth scale scores not improved by National Institute for Mental Health or Narcotic Addict Rehabilitation Act inpatient programs.

Xenobiotic reduction and clinical improvements in capacitor workers: A feasible method

“…Previously published data, however, indicate that other lipophilic chemicals have also been reduced by this treatment. [9][10][11]48 Though treated patients maintained an improvement in adipose PCB levels, these levels were higher for all groups at the 4 month follow-up than had been observed at post-treatment. No unusual exposure opportunities were recorded to explain these changes, although inadvertent exposure due to ongoing clean-up activities or a persisting local contamination 49 may have contributed to the observed elevations.…”

Persistent organic pollutants in 9/11 world trade center rescue workers: Reduction following detoxification

“…Following examination and tests, the study subjects enrolled in a previously described method of detoxification, a treatment regimen including exercise, sauna bathing and vitamin and mineral supplements developed to address the adverse effects of chemical exposures 6 . On completion of treatment, all had blood drawn for post-treatment testing and complete follow-up examination as described above.…”

Methamphetamine exposure and chronic illness in police officers

“…After the release of treatment protocol in 1979, Schnare et al (1982) described the program’s safety and ability to reduce symptoms and improve mental functioning among individuals with a variety of chemical or illicit drug exposures.…”
